Abstract

This paper is concerned with the problem of synchronization between two different chaotic systems with discontinuous coupling. Based on the stability theory and the comparison theorem of differential equations, we derive less restrictive synchronization conditions than those resulting from the Lyapunov theory. The theoretical results show that generalized synchronization between two different chaotic systems can be achieved if the time-average coupling strength is large enough. Finally, the corresponding numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed schemes.
